Walimex Pro Cage: Great Alternative to the Wooden Camera Cage

I love my Wooden Camera Quick Cage, but the cost of shooting with one is pretty steep. A complete WC cage setup that can be use with or without rods will set you back $839 (cage + extra plate for non-rod use) which is pretty painful.

Recently I discovered the Walimex Pro Cage which I’ll be reviewing in the upcoming weeks. In short, this is a killer, super strong, flexible alternative to the WC cage. For the same setup mentioned above, you’ll pay $608 or $399 for the cage without rod support. You could also pick up an entire shoulder rig system from Walimex Pro for $899 which is close to the price of the WC cage system. Oh, and you can also add on a ton of different accessories from Walimex Pro.

All that said, the Wooden Camera Cage performs better in some ways, but the Walimex Pro cage also has some great tricks up it’s sleeve. Stay tuned for a full review soon and in the meantime, check out these sexy A7s photos with the cage:
